- add "%s" to unsafe cons_show/log_*/win_println calls
- add check-cwe134.sh static analysis script
- integrate security check into CI pipeline

-### Security checks
-
-We have a static analyzer `check-cwe134.sh` that detects CWE-134 format string vulnerabilities. It runs automatically in CI but you can also run it locally:
-
-```bash
-./check-cwe134.sh
-```
-
-This checks for unsafe patterns where data could be passed directly as a format string to functions like `printf`, `cons_show`, etc. Never pass a raw string for formatting; use `"%s"` format specifier instead.
-
 ### Finding typos
 
 We include a `.codespellrc` configuration file for `codespell` in the root directory.
